Pistol nozzle rack rotatable and adjustable in height

ABSTRACT

A pistol nozzle rack comprises a rotary seat, an expandable support rod, and a holding seat. The rotary seat is formed of a rotary disk and a base in which the bottom end of the support rod is rotatably mounted. The rotary disk is provided in the upper side with a plurality of receiving slots for receiving one end of the grip of the pistol nozzle. The rotary disk turns along with the support rod. The holding seat is mounted on the top end of the support rod and is provided with a plurality of holding slots corresponding in location and number to the receiving slots of the rotary disk for holding the barrel of the pistol nozzle.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates generally to a pistol nozzle, andmore particularly to a pistol nozzle rack which can be rotated andadjusted in height.

[0003] 2. Description of Related Art

[0004] The conventional pistol nozzle rack has an open grating forholding a plurality of pistol nozzles. The open grating is formed by aplurality of horizontal rods and vertical rods. The horizontal rods areprovided with a plurality of curved portions serving to located thepistol nozzles.

[0005] Such conventional pistol nozzle rack as described above isdefective in design in that the curved portions do not locateeffectively the pistol nozzles, thereby resulting in a disorderlyarrangement of the pistol nozzles. In addition, the horizontal rods andthe vertical rods of the conventional pistol nozzles obstruct the viewof the user of the pistol nozzles, thereby causing a great deal ofinconvenience for the user to select a desired pistol nozzle. Moreover,the horizontal rods and the vertical rods are welded together. As aresult, the conventional pistol nozzle rack can not be adjusted inheight in accordance with the specifications of the pistol nozzles.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide apistol nozzle rack which is free of the drawbacks of the conventionalpistol nozzle rack described above.

[0007] The pistol nozzle rack of the present invention comprises arotary seat, a support rod, and a holding seat. The rotary seat isformed of a rotary disk and a base. The rotary disk is provided in theupper side with a plurality of receiving slots for receiving one end ofthe grip of the pistol nozzle. The support rod is held at one end by therotary seat and is adjustable in length. The holding seat is mounted onother end of the support rod and is provided with a plurality of holdingslots corresponding in location to the receiving slots of the rotarydisk for holding the barrels of the pistol nozzles.

[0008] The features, functions, and advantages of the present inventionwill be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of thefollowing detailed description of the present invention with referenceto the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0015] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, a pistol nozzle rack embodied in thepresent invention comprises a rotary seat 10, a support rod 20, and aholding seat 30.

[0016] The rotary seat 10 is formed of a rotary disk 11 and a base 12.The rotary disk 11 is provided in the underside with a plurality ofprojections 13. The base 12 is provided in the upper side with acircular guide slot 14 corresponding in location to the projections 13of the rotary disk 11. The rotary disk 11 is provided in the upper sidewith a plurality of receiving slots 15 for receiving one end of a grip06 of a pistol nozzle 05.

[0017] The support rod 20 is pivoted at the bottom end with the centerof the rotary seat 10 such that the support rod 20 is uprightlydisposed.

[0018] The holding seat 30 is mounted on the top end of the support rod20 and is provided with a plurality of holding slots 31 corresponding inlocation and number to the receiving slots 15 of the rotary disk 11 ofthe rotary seat 10. The holding slots 31 are intended to hold the barrelof the pistol nozzle 05.

[0019] The rotary disk 11 is provided at the center with a first mount16, whereas the base 12 is provided at the center with a second mount 17corresponding in location to the first mount 16. The second mount 17 isprovided at the bottom with a stop piece 18. The support rod 20 ispivoted at the bottom end with the center of the rotary seat 10 suchthat the bottom end of the support rod 20 is mounted in the first mount16 of the rotary disk 11 and the second mount 17 of the base 12 inconjunction with a fastening bolt 19, and that the bottom end of thesupport rod 20 turns in the second mount 17 of the base 12. In light ofthe support rod 20 being fastened with the first mount 16 of the rotarydisk 11 by the fastening bolt 19, the rotary disk 11 turns along withthe support rod 20 at such time when the support rod 20 is turned in thesecond mount 17 of the base 12.

[0020] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the receiving slots 15 of the rotarydisk are provided with a through hole 151 to accommodate a control lever07 of the pistol nozzle 05.

[0021] The support rod 20 is expandable and formed of an inner tube 22and an outer tube 23 into which the inner tube 22 is slidably fitted.The outer tube 23 is provided with an adjustment portion 21 comprising athreaded through hole 24 and a locating knob 25 for locating the innertube 22 via the threaded through hole 24.

[0022] The holding slots 31 of the holding seat 30 are provided in theinner wall with a retaining portion 32 for retaining the barrel of thepistol nozzle 05.

[0023] The holding slots 31 of the holding seat 30 are different indepth, as illustrated in FIG. 6.

[0024] The embodiment of the present invention described above is to beregarded in all respects as being merely illustrative and notrestrictive. Accordingly, the present invention may be embodied in otherspecific forms without deviating from the spirit thereof. The presentinvention is therefore to be limited only by the scopes of the followingclaims.
